Resolution: Waiver of Proximity for Silverside Deli at 2122 South Highland Drive
The Council will receive a briefing on a resolution that would grant a waiver of proximity for Silverside Deli at 2122 South Highland Drive, pursuant to Utah Code 32B-1-202. The restaurant is located across the street from Sprague Library within Council District 7. As of May 2026, State code requires local municipalities to approve a waiver of proximity for liquor permits prior to the Utah Department of Alcohol Beverage Services (DABS) granting the license when the location is within a specific proximity to a community location, such as a library, public park, or playground. The City is required to hold a public hearing at least 30 days before a waiver can be approved.

Ordinance: Maximum Daily Water Use Text Amendment
The Council will receive a briefing about a proposal that would amend Title 21A of the Salt Lake City Code to clarify that non-residential land uses are subject to the maximum daily water consumption of 200,000 gallons per day. On March 24, 2026, the Council adopted a temporary land use regulation (TLUR) that modified the exemptions to the maximum daily water use allowed. The proposal would formally adopt the TLUR, modifying the daily maximum water consumption allowed by limiting the exemptions to agriculture, schools, government-owned or operated facilities that primarily provide social services, places of worship, and hospitals. The proposal would apply to all zoning districts.
